Company Description: Eshinui, Inc. is an enterprise-level maintenance and spare parts logistics software provider for semiconductor manufacturing facilities. The company's solution, Rover(TM), is designed to integrate an unprecedented number of system-wide processes into a single system to optimize maintenance and spare parts logistics. Eshinui's innovative design approach for Rover includes independent modules, which provide detailed management, tracking, and analysis capabilities to cover the entire chip production process.

Semiconductor Fabrication Facilities (Fab) downtime has been a critical business problem throughout the history of semiconductor production. Contributing factors to this downtime include inaccurate spares consumption data, ineffective use of contamination control data, and the lack of historic data to assist preventative maintenance scheduling for effective production operations. To address these critical process management issues, Eshinui's Rover System provide comprehensive management tools to optimize these variables and improve the reliability of equipment and manufacturing processes for semiconductor fabs.

The Rover System is made up of individual, yet integratable modules that are directly connected to all aspects of production flow from spare parts procurement through the production process to parts refurbishment. This modular approach lets the user choose the functionality that fits their needs.

Each module has been carefully designed to immediately provide an accurate collection of information available to everyone. For example, maintenance engineers can easily and accurately locate parts for specific tools; spare part logistic personnel can be certain that each process will have the correct parts when needed; and process engineers will have accurate evaluation of critical inventory parameters for each part or tool.

The system modules include, spare parts and consumables manager, equipment and service manager, refurbishment manager, warranty manager, kitting manager and calibration manager. Each of these modules is aimed at organizing, extracting and enhancing the massive amount of data involved in operations and process flows, resulting in substantial cost savings and elimination of inefficiencies.
